I liked the special overall but he got too preachy when talking about Trump and that part sucked except for one or two jokes.

Things that never happend for $500 Alex.

Mr. Savior, Nobel Peace Prize 1st year in office (despite expanding the war) - Mr. race relations - where he brought us all together...post-racial America. Man of the Year...Time/Newsweek...

Typical reporter question: "Please explain to us how you are so awesome?"

If Obama ever got criticized it would be patty-cake stuff...he smokes, he has big ears, he's too smart for his own good.

You didn't hear Dan Rather or 60 minutes calling Obama the devil.

Not equally.

And not the same.

And I can’t really remember seeing Obama getting flak when some of his shite blew up. It was reported and brushed aside.

And what jabs he did get were typically “good natured” ribbing. More like joking amongst friends than anything.


You think Trump would get the same treatment if he continually violated several countries airspace for military incursions against their wishes and among their protests?

You don’t think there wouldn’t be Wall to Wall cries for impeachment if in one of these attacks, he killed an American minor who was guilty of nothing other than being in the wrong place?

Late night politics are nothing new.

I don’t think I’ve seen it this focused however. I don’t think a single day goes by that they don’t attack Trump.

Not to get political, but

Huh? At worst Obama got jokes like he was too nerdy, too generous, or positive "aw shucks" jokes.

Bush and Trump were hammered. What's different now though is the animosity towards a subsection of voters. And Chapelle fell into that trap as well, but at least he wasn't vicious like other comedians have been. As usual, Chapelle keeps it pretty fair.
